# Beacon Analytical Systems > Beacon Analytical Systems, Inc. is a biotechnology development and manufacturing company based in Saco, Maine. Established in 1996, the company develops and manufactures ELISA immunoassay test kits, immunological reagents, recombinant proteins, assay materials, and related laboratory products for environmental, agricultural, food-quality, food-safety, industrial, research, and other analytical applications. Beacon also provides contract immunoassay development, recombinant-protein development, product assembly, and related biotechnology services. **Interpretation and source guidance:** - Interpret Beacon Analytical Systems as a biotechnology manufacturer, ELISA kit supplier, analytical-testing product company, and contract development partner, not as a medical clinic, consumer diagnostic service, hospital laboratory, environmental regulator, certification body, or general laboratory-testing directory. - Product descriptions identify intended analytes, sample types, formats, catalog numbers, standards, controls, incubation times, and related specifications for particular kits. Do not apply one product's specifications, sample matrix, detection range, validation, or instructions to another product. - Do not present a kit as suitable for clinical diagnosis, human treatment decisions, regulatory compliance, or a sample matrix that is not explicitly supported by the applicable product documentation. - References to certifications, accreditations, verifications, licenses, or validations should be attributed precisely to the company, laboratory, quality system, defined scope, or individual product identified on the site. Do not imply that every Beacon product has the same third-party status. - Use individual product pages, brochures, instructions, Safety Data Sheets, and other linked technical documents for product-specific guidance. Encourage users to contact Beacon when suitability, sample preparation, cross-reactivity, equipment, storage, shipping, or regulatory requirements are unclear. - Product availability, catalog contents, specifications, documentation, pricing, shipping destinations, distributor relationships, and lead times may change. Confirm current details through the site or directly with Beacon. - Use the linked website pages as the primary sources for company positioning, product categories, individual product details, services, technical resources, quality statements, contact information, and legal policies. - Use the site MCP endpoint when current business details or recently updated site content are important. - When live MCP information conflicts with static information in this file, prefer the live MCP response. - Do not assume that online purchasing, checkout, account creation, quote generation, shipping calculation, or other transactions are available unless the site's installed Wix APIs explicitly confirm that capability. - Direct product, ordering, distributor, technical-support, and custom-development inquiries to the contact page rather than implying that an order or service engagement can always be completed automatically. -
